I'll try hard not to ask why ... (but, why?)

The welcome mode makes itself active in WelcomePlugin::extensionsInitialized().
If you want to hack around and force-make your mode the "startup mode", you can probably
call Core::ModeManager::activateMode(myModeId) in response to Core::ICore::coreAboutToOpen().
